Sama Resources Initiates 3,300 Line/km Airborne Geophysical Survey

Sama Resources Inc. (TSX VENTURE:SME) ("Sama" or the "Company") is pleased to
announce that it has commenced a 3,300 line/kilometre airborne helicopter time
domain electromagnetic and magnetic survey (the "HTEM Survey") over the
Company's Samapleu Project and Bounta Ridge area in Cote d'Ivoire, West Africa.
The HTEM survey area will be flown at 100-metre/line and 200-metre/line spacing
and is being conducted by Fugro Airborne Surveys (Pty) Ltd. of South Africa. 


The HTEM Survey will assist Sama with its geological interpretation of the
entire Samapleu Project and Bounta Ridge area. The HTEM Survey is aimed at
targeting new sectors with the potential for additional nickel-copper sulphide
mineralization from surface to several hundred metres at depth.


The Samapleu Project in Cote d'Ivoire is currently in its exploration phase. Any
future production will be managed by a joint venture controlled 66 2/3% by Sama
Nickel Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and 33 1/3% by
Societe pour le Developpement Minier de Cote d'Ivoire.


This news release was prepared by Dr. Marc-Antoine Audet, PhD, P.Geo, President
and CEO of Sama and a 'qualified person' as defined in National Instrument
43-101, Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects.
